Egyptian Family Adventure Tel : +47 22413030 | Epost :[email protected]| Web :www.reisebazaar.no Karl Johans gt. 23, 0159 Oslo, Norway Egyptian Family Adventure Turkode Destinasjoner Turen starter FEN Egypt Cairo Turen destinasjon Reisen er levert av 9 dager Hughada Fra : NOK Oversikt Explore the vibrant culture and ancient history of Egypt. Reiserute Day 1 Start Cairo. The group flight usually arrives in Cairo this evening. The welcome briefing will either take place this evening or tomorrow morning. Our family friendly hotel is close to the pyramids, meaning that there is less distance to cover for the sightseeing the next day.Pyramids Park Resort Hotel or similar Day 2 Morning at the Pyramids and Great Sphinx of Giza; optional visit to the Egyptian Museum. Today you'll enjoy a half-day sightseeing tour of two of the city's most celebrated sights. At Giza, to the west of the city, the enigmatic Sphinx and Great Pyramids stand on the edge of the empty desert overlooking the city, providing a great contrast between the ancient and the modern faces of Egypt. More than 4000 years old, the pyramids are the only one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World that remain intact - a testimony to the ingenuity and skill of their builders. The afternoon is free to relax at our hotel, explore Cairo, join an optional excursion to Saqqara, Memphis and Dahshur or visit the famed Egyptian Museum – home to the world’s largest collection of ancient Egyptian artefacts including the incredible golden riches of Tutankhamun’s tomb.Pyramids Park Resort Hotel or similar Day 3 Afternoon Cairo tour; board sleeper train in the evening. After a leisurely start to the day we will transfer to Al Azhar mosque which dates back to AD970 and is Cairo’s oldest. The mosque is still frequently visited by locals to this day and we will need to cover up (long sleeves and trousers) to enter - as when entering all mosques. Women will also need to cover their hair with a scarf. We then have time for lunch and an explore of Al Azhar Park before moving on to the historic centre of Islamic Cairo for a walk around the bazaars of Khan el-Khalili. This evening we transfer to the railway station and board our sleeper train to Aswan (which takes approximately 12 hours).Sleeper train Day 4 Arrive Aswan; afternoon felucca ride. We arrive in Aswan during the morning. To travellers in ancient times, the town was legendary as the entrance to the kingdom of Nubia. Today it's still something of a frontier town. With its mixed population of Egyptians and Nubians, Aswan is quite unlike any other town in the country, and a fascinating place to visit. By virtue of its position on the old caravan route, it has always been a trading centre and we thoroughly recommend a visit to the packed bazaar today where merchants display a wealth of exotic spices, carpets, leather goods and countless other wares. There will be time to relax after the train journey or visit a nearby Nubian village before we board a traditional felucca in the afternoon and explore the Nile. Along the way we will have a glimpse of rural life along this fertile valley and the golden dunes beyond.Basma Hotel or similar Day 5 Aswan Dam and Philae Temple; transfer to Luxor. We begin today with a visit to the Philae Temple and Aswan High Dam. In the 1970s the temple was relocated by UNESCO to Aglika Island after it became evident that the original site of Philae would submerge on completion of the dam. This morning represents a magnificent and enduring testament to both ancient and modern engineering. After lunch we drive north, following the path of the Nile to Luxor (approx. 4 hours). Known in ancient times as Thebes, Luxor was the capital of Egypt's New Kingdom for some 500 years. Upon arrival there may be some time to see some of the town before dinner.Iberotel Luxor or similar Day 6 Explore the Valley of the Kings and the Colossi of Memnon; evening light show at Karnak Temple. Rising early, we cross the Nile and drive to the secluded valley where 63 Pharaohs were buried as part of their journey to the afterlife. We have time to explore some of the exquisitely decorated tombs of these ancient rulers. It is here that the burial site of the boy-king, Tutankhamun, discovered by British archaeologist Howard Carter in 1922, can be found. Afterwards we visit the massive stone statues of the Colossi of Memnon and stop by the A.C.E animal hospital to learn about the efforts taken to improve animal welfare in Egypt. Later this evening we visit Karnak Temple for a sound and light show which recounts the dramatic history of ancient Thebes in an extravagant and fun way.Iberotel Luxor or similar Day 7 Transfer to Hurghada; submarine ride and snorkelling in Red Sea. This morning we leave behind the green Nile valley and drive through the barren Eastern Desert to the Red Sea (approx. 4 hours). Our destination is Hurghada, a vibrant beach resort ideally located for activities out at sea and in the nearby desert. After lunch we board a semi-submersible vessel in the style of a yellow submarine and explore the coral wonderland beneath the surface of the Red Sea. There will also be time for some snorkelling before returning to dry land.Minamark Beach Resort or similar Day 8 Free day at the Red Sea or for optional activities in the Sahara Desert. Today is free to relax or enjoy the many optional activities in the area (see the Optional Activities section of the trip notes for details of what is available).Minamark Beach Resort or similar Day 9 End Hurghada. Our trip ends today. Those on the group flights will be taken to airport for the flight to London.

Introduction She presented some examples of poor treatment of animals in daily life by people who have control over the animals. The book presents evidence on this topic to clarify the correct ways of treating animals. The book serves as a guide in matters related to ideal treatment of animals in daily life. Likewise it serves as a reminder to people of the divine rules and the fne human values that Islam calls for in treatment of animals. 2.

  • The Impact of the Arab Conquest on Late Roman Settlementin Egypt
    Pýý.ý577 THE IMPACT OF THE ARAB CONQUEST ON LATE ROMAN SETTLEMENTIN EGYPT VOLUME I: TEXT UNIVERSITY LIBRARY CAMBRIDGE This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of Cambridge, March 2002 ALISON GASCOIGNE DARWIN COLLEGE, CAMBRIDGE For my parents with love and thanks Abstract The Impact of the Arab Conquest on Late Roman Settlement in Egypt Alison Gascoigne, Darwin College The Arab conquest of Egypt in 642 AD affected the development of Egyptian towns in various ways. The actual military struggle, the subsequent settling of Arab tribes and changes in administration are discussed in chapter 1, with reference to specific sites and using local archaeological sequences. Chapter 2 assesseswhether our understanding of the archaeological record of the seventh century is detailed enough to allow the accurate dating of settlement changes. The site of Zawyet al-Sultan in Middle Egypt was apparently abandoned and partly burned around the time of the Arab conquest. Analysis of surface remains at this site confirmed the difficulty of accurately dating this event on the basis of current information. Chapters3 and 4 analysethe effect of two mechanismsof Arab colonisation on Egyptian towns. First, an investigation of the occupationby soldiers of threatened frontier towns (ribats) is based on the site of Tinnis. Examination of the archaeological remains indicates a significant expansion of Tinnis in the eighth and ninth centuries, which is confirmed by references in the historical sources to building programmes funded by the central government. Second, the practice of murtaba ` al- jund, the seasonal exploitation of the town and its hinterland for the grazing of animals by specific tribal groups is examined with reference to Kharibta in the western Delta.

  • A Brief History of Ancient Egypt
    1) Course Introduction and Brief History of Ancient Egypt. Mohamed Ali. A series of select readings provide background on why Egypt has always played a pivotal leadership role in the region. This includes Egypt’s movement from a historical position of regional dominance, to being under the influence of European and Russian powers, to once again becoming a regional power. (Oct 21) Ancient Egypt Overview The basic element in the lengthy history of Egyptian civilization is geography. The Nile River rises from the lakes of central Africa as the White Nile and from the mountains of Ethiopia as the Blue Nile. The White and Blue Nile meet at Khartoum and flow together northward to the Nile delta, where the 4000 mile course of this river spills into the Mediterranean Sea (see map). Less than two inches of rain per year falls in the delta and rain is relatively unknown in other parts of Egypt. Most of the land is uninhabitable. These geographical factors have determined the character of Egyptian civilization. People could farm only along the banks of the Nile, where arid sand meets the fertile soil. Of course, each summer the Nile swells as the rains pour down and the snow melts on the mountains. The river overflows its banks and floods the land with fresh water and deposits a thick layer of rich alluvial soil. The land would then yield two harvests before winter. This yearly flood determined more than just the agricultural needs of early Egypt. It also determined the lifecycle of society and helped to create the world view of ancient Egyptian civilization.

  • A Critical Analysis on Media Coverage of the Egyptian Revolution
    Örebro University School of Humanities, Education and Social Sciences 2010‐2012 A CRITICAL ANALYSIS ON MEDIA COVERAGE OF THE EGYPTIAN REVOLUTION: THE CASE OF AL-AHRAM, AL-MASRY AL-YOUM, THE TELEGRAPH AND THE WASHINGTON POST MA Thesis Global Journalism Supervisor: Prof. Stig‐Arne Nohrstedt Author: Ahmed Magdy Youssef Word of Gratitude First of all, I would like to thank my university mentor, Stig-arne Nohrsted, as being the one who helped me in carrying out this thesis. Actually, I found succour in him during the thesis project. Not surbrisingly, he was replying back to my questions all the time, though, sometimes, he was very busy. Also, I would like to thank my loving wife Hend and my “naughty” son Hamza, whose boundless love keeps pushing me forward all the time. ii ABSTRACT The Egyptian protest movement which brought down the Egyptian regime headed by President Hosni Mubarak, not only gripped the minds and hearts of the Egyptians, but it captured the interest of the national and international media as well. The research aims at answering questions related to the kind of frames employed in four newspapers; namely, Al-Ahram, Al-Masry Al-Youm, The Telegraph and The Washington Post, in light of the protest paradigm, in addition to the way the same four newspapers tried to explore and identify the characteristics of war and peace journalism, according to Galtung’s dichotomous model, not to mention to trace how the four newspapers in hand depicted the protesters. To achieve this, two methods were applied in this study; notably, frame analysis, and critical discourse analysis.

    Anti-blackness in Egypt: Between Stereotypes and Ridicule An Examination on the History of Colorism and the development of Anti-blackness in Egypt _________________ Master’s Thesis Presented to The Faculty of Arts, Psychology, and Theology at _________________ Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Social Exclusion _________________ By Islam Bara’ah Sabry Åbo, Finland Name: Islam Bara’ah Sabry Student Number: 1902148 Subject: Social Exclusion Major: History Title of Work: Anti-blackness in Egypt: Between Stereotypes and Ridicule - An Examination on the History of Colorism and the development of Anti-blackness in Egypt Supervisor: Prof. Holger Weiss Abstract: This research recognizes the absence of a term that defines color prejudices and racial discrimination in the Arab world. Accordingly, this study proposes the notion of anti-blackness to examine color-based discrimination in Egypt. By identifying anti-blackness as part of a multilayered socio-cultural process, this research engages with the historical, social, and cultural factors that led to its development. This research also explores the implications of anti-blackness on black people living in Egypt. A sample of media is analyzed using the critical discourse analysis (CDC) method to observe the portrayal of black people in Egyptian media. This study concludes that the historical development of social stigma and cultural stereotypes around blackness has led to anti-blackness in Egyptian society.
